Fx 6300 vs Core i3-4130

[Slick2sick]

Which of cpu is better for playing League of legends,dota 2 and crysis2/3 with a gtx 560ti 448 cuda cores version 😀 ?

The 6300 Is a 6-core CPU, it runs faster but also hotter and requires more power. The I3 is a dual core with Hyper-Threading, basically making it a quad core, it runs cooler and uses less power than the the AMD, It depends on what you have available, if the I3 is cheaper I'd say go for it as it is a great CPU, if the AMD is cheaper then go for that.

The AMD 6300 will be slightly better. Especially for overclocking. I have an AMD 6350 it runs perfect. But either way unless you go for overclocking you wont feel the big difference in gaming.

im not going to overclock at all
and i made some math there are 3 possible upgrades of cpu mobo 😛
i3 upgrade :

For any fo these systems im going to use a 550watt HKC power supply 12v@24amps and gtx 560ti 448 cuda cores and 4gb ram ddr3 @ 1333mhz

What u guys suggest either got fx 6300 or i3 ... many ppl tell me that i3 is way better than fx 6300 on games that use 1-2 cores and from many graphics iv proved that too :/ i3 is 52% faster than fx 6300 in single threaded performance xD ACTUALLY im playing on games that dont use many cores i mainly play league of legends this game doesn need more than 2 cores but im afraid that i can start playing higher end games like crysis 3 and stuff and idk what is best for me :/

 

[Emil_Meld]

Well, im gonna leave that up to you. If you're so sure that the i3 is better, then whats the question?

Also when you say that you might consider playing other games, how am I supposed to help you with that?

 

[Slick2sick]

im looking to buy a future proof processor u know :/ the fx 6300 will do me the job ? Im looking to open 2 games at same time and like chrome with like 10+ tabs open listening to music and like 2-3 other programms open

 

[Emil_Meld]

You will not be able to run two games at a time with that system no matter what CPU you go for. Unless you're talking about flashgames. Also if you are playing why would you want programs open? Unless you are talking about steam..

 

[Slick2sick]

yea steam skype and theres another programm 😛P and i would like to have for example lets say league of legends when its finding a match i wanna play another game until i find the match

The i3 is going to be a better chip, not only now but in the future. Here are my reasons;
Lower TDP
Upgrades on the 1150 socket... even Broadwell
More program support (really, just look at DayZ AMD vs Intel CPU)
Single-threaded performance
Comparable multi-threaded performance
USB 3.0 (AMD may have this but I have seen evidence of not)
Intel CPU (this may or may not apply to you as a pro)
Easily the most supported processor platform among all the others (LGA 1150) in 2014
Better performance in most cases (unless all cores are very well utilized but in which case the difference is unnoticeable)
Plentiful Models to choose

All around the i3 is the best choice but the FX-6300 is not a terrible card either.
